The Newgrounds community. I used to post regularly on the forums there before I grew up and realized how retarded it all was.
 
I had a co-worker who refused to get her five children vaccinated and spent most of her time preaching about the evil government conspiracy to poison good christian children with satanic chemicals. She eventually left, probably to hold up in a bunker somewhere.

I think I already mentioned another co-worker who believes the Boston bombings must be the work of the government. He literally believes all bad things must come from government.
 
I know shit is bad right now job wise, but I don't think I could work there. My dad works with one of those types, and he ignores him, I don't know how dad does it.
 
It gets even better. Crazy guy says that 9/11 was done by the government with missiles, with holograms of airplanes on the missiles. The planes never existed, and anyone who says they had a loved one on them is lying and out to be hung.

Sicne when was the NG community retarded. I like to know what year that started in. Was it before they overhauled the main page near the end of '07, '08, '09 (I forgot what year they changed the front page.)

Since when was the NG community like that? I like to know what year that started in. Was it before they overhauled the main page near the end of '07, '08, '09 (I forgot what year they changed the front page.)

Planes never existed, missles', holograms, and lies from the government? Did this guy ever take any drugs because I'm pretty sure he had to of taken something very strong to think of something like that.

Not that I know of. He's just one of many gullible idiots who will believe anything anyone tells them as long as they put an "The evil government is out to get you!" spin on it.

Well then, someone may as well tell him that the evil government has actually has him under surveillance, where we are really MiB's who are going to make him suffer by infecting the masses through vaccines provided by the government, eventually culminating in a zombie outbreak from the vaccines that causes Washington to launch a nuke on the affected area we have contained, destroying everything, eventually making him trying to stop more of our evil government plans.

Honestly, I'm not really trying to bust on NG itself, it's a decent site and has a lot of cool stuff. But the forums...ugh. Lots of really fucking weird people. Crazy furries, proto-loveshies (I saw a lot of rants that would fit in on the loveshy forums), idiots who got 4chan memes about three years too late, people who went into way too much detail about their weird fetishes, and lots of other unpleasant internet types. If I was to hazard a guess, it's just because Newgrounds is a (relatively) mainstream site, and with all the people that frequent the forums, you get a lot of strange ones.

I posted on the forums from 06 to 08. The redesign was in 07, and there was another one after I left that I really don't care enough to look up. Last time I looked, there were a ton of crazy bronies there, which really doesn't surprise me.

I think the only reason it interests me is not because it's a particularly funny lolcow, but because I'm always like 'what the fuck was I thinking posting here?'.

Considering how it is mainstream, I kinda see where you're going at. Haven't posted there along time. I'm pretty sure I'd join the ranks of that forum as an idiot, seeing as how my first post was crap enough to get me banned, making some topics that I REALLY regretted making. Still, seeing what kind of people inhabit it makes me wonder if any of them can become true lolcow material amongst the rest.

Speaking as someone who frequents the BBS, it isn't really mainstream if at all. People who post the way they do (in the only sections of the forum in which the your descriptions apply) because they know they can do so unrestrained. There are other parts of the forum, like Politics, where crap like that is either not tolerated or vertually nonexistant. A lot of the threads can either be annoying or funny depending on how you look at them.

And to answer the question of possible lolcows there: nope. A point several people have made is to keep their NG account separate from everything else so no one they know can see the kind of crap they have posted. While many act like morons, a lot are much smarter than you give credit for. It also sounds like you're either taking it too seriously, or you picked bad points to peek in.
 
I got in an argument with some people on Tumblr about Rastafari. They were just getting pissy about white people having dreadlocks and how it was cultural appropriation. I reminded them that Rastafari was a religion, not a race, and that even though the belief was centered around black people, white people could still hold the same beliefs. Rather than just argue with any sort of facts or counter argument, they flipped their shit and started calling me a bunch of racist slurs. I thought it was funny, and then they accused ME of being racist for "laughing at black people's pain".

God, it was a funny night.

Reminds me of when I try telling people that "Hispanic" isn't a race.

I didn't really take it seriously, but I may as well have picked bad points. I joined NG when I was a day away from being 13 and being new to the internet in terms of forums, I basically acted like an idiot and I was rightfully banned for two stupid topics I made back then. Also made a couple topics that stemmed from my then new, born-again Christian fundie beliefs that really made me wonder if I was an idiot due to being a young teen or just being an idiot who was new to the internet. Never really did thought of people making separate accounts to post threads that are either annoying or funny though.
 
I have a theory that equates contraception with a form of rape.

It goes something like this: Rape has nothing to do with consent, and everything to do with the intent of the rapist. If the only intent in a sex act is to use another person as an object for sexual gratification, then that is rape. The only concrete, material way to judge this is the intent to create a new life. Rapists aren’t thinking about a new life, and if they’re thinking about the future at all, they want their sex to be non-procreative. Contraception is about preventing new life from occurring- and thus making the woman available to be a sex object.

Also, all physical evidence aside, wouldn't it be cheaper for the government to just fly a plane into a building than invent holograms?

It would be cheaper but then again, where's all the fun in that? Holograms makes things much more fun LUL!111 Seriously though, the crazy guy who believes in hologram 9/11 would be a lol-cow if he exposed his crazed thoughts to the internet where someone post it, slowly gaining trolls who try to dox him and write an article about his crazed beliefs.
